Halloween
This year I made my first Halloween costume. It's not a great masterpiece but I didn't have a lot of time - this costume was simple and pretty easy to make, but was absolutely adorable!
The skirt is a simple no-sew tutu and the shirt is a onesie purchased from Hobby Lobby with an iron-on tie also purchased from Hobby Lobby. The wig was found at a Halloween store for just $4.99 and she already had the shoes and the leggings.
It didn't take Felicity long to figure out what the whole trick-or-treating thing was about. She was great and wore her wig the entire time, even when she finally fell asleep. I'm already thinking of ideas for next year - I'm leaning toward doing something like a "Peacock Princess".... we'll see.

Loved making Halloween costumes when my kids were little. My best year was probably when my daughter was Dorothy and my son was the Cowdardly Lion. That lion costume was some tough (thick fabric) sewing! We glued red glitter onto old sneakers for my daughter's ruby slippers, but it was wet out, so by the end of the night, most of the glitter was gone! : )
